I'm not exactly sure what you are saying here.

I'll reiterate my comments about Bach's writing in musical lines (not
always, of course).

Transcribing, keep in mind, is NOT the same as re-orchestrating.  Handel's
"water Music" has been re-orchestrated (to the music's detriment, I think)
but not to my knowledge transcribed.

In general, I think, he urge to re-orchestrate should be avoided.  The urge
to transcribe (for orchestra) is also a bit dangerous -- Ravel's Pictures
at an Exhibition not withstanding.

Of course, until quite recently, Bach's music was not heard on the
instruments he composed it for.  So the Bach we heard was -- in effect --
a technical re-instrumentation.  Even his "thick" polyphonic choral music
was sung with mixed male/female singers which he was unfamiliar with.
